Don't remind me.

More recently than you think. Do you use any PC younger than a decade old? It has to boot from FAT. Do you use a Raspberry Pi? It has to boot from FAT. Do you use any media-handling device with an SD card bigger than 32GB? Then it uses FAT.

That was my point: you probably use it every day, but don't realise.
